If you re in the market for a good plastic comb binding machine that s not too expensive but still has some powerful features, you need to check out the GBC CombBind C110 binding machine. Designed for personal and small office use, the CombBind C110 is a definite step up from GBC s C55 and C75 machines, and it was produced to replace the company s CombBind C100 and Docubind P100 machines. Read on to find out what the GBC CombBind can do and why you should purchase one for your office today.
One of the things that sets the C110 apart from the C55 and C75 is its design. GBC has produced a very attractive machine in a nice blue/gray hue that would look good in any office. (Both the C55 and C75 were utilitarian looking and while they got the job done, they weren t very pleasant to look at.) But of course, looks aren t everything, and the C110 outshines the other machines when it comes to performance. First, this machine is capable of punching 15 sheets of 20 lb. paper at once, which will help you save time, and it can easily bind a 300 page document. This machine is very user friendly and features an ergonomically designed punching lever (to reduce the risk of repetitive motion injuries), a comb size selection guide, and an adjustable edge so you can vary what size covers you use to bind your booklets. The C110 is also equipped with a separate bind lever, which will help increase your productivity. As a bonus, GBC has designed the C110 to be compatible with its popular ZipBind spines. ZipBind spines are fashionable and easy to use, and having the option of using them in addition to plastic combs is a nice feature to having in a binding machine. Finally, the C110 is available for about $200.00, so it s an affordable option for offices that need an easy to use binding machine.
The C110 does have a few drawbacks, most notably, the machine lacks disengageable dies. Thus, if you re going to be binding documents longer than 11 inches long or documents of a non standard size, you ll need to choose a different machine. Also, this binding machine lacks a depth of punch margin control, so you won t be able to control the position of the holes in your document. Finally, some users might not be happy with the machine s 15 page punching capacity as it could prove to be a bit tedious to punch a longer document with this machine. So high capacity users might want to choose a product with a larger punching capacity, as well as such advanced features as the depth of punch margin control.
Despite the C110 s handful of shortcomings, this is a solidly built, reliable machine that s available for a reasonable price. The fact that the C110 can accommodate GBC s ZipBind spines is a thoughtful addition and should make this machine appeal to anyone who needs a high quality binding machine with different binding options. In other words, it s good for anyone who wants a lot of bang for their binding machine buck.
